Calibrating the Model 3251 is a Simple Two-Step Process<p>The Model 3251, Battery Operated Wireless CO Monitor, is a gas monitor capable of measuring ambient CO gas concentrations. The calibration procedure is a simple two-step process. 100% air is applied first, followed by a known concentration of calibration gas (PBE recommends 25 ppm gas). After the display has settled, press the (+) and (-) buttons until the value matches the rated value of the concentration gas. The Model 3251 is now calibrated and monitoring gas levels.</p>

PBE’s Responsible Ventilation Management System Can Save Money in Electricity<p>Electricity is generally the single largest cost to an underground mine with the auxiliary ventilation system usually being a mine&rsquo;s single greatest user of electricity (30% - 50%). Using PBE&rsquo;s Responsible Ventilation management system, fans can be controlled by personnel tracking and environmental monitoring, in addition to scheduled events and manual controls. The cost of these safety systems can be paid for by the saving in electricity, hence potentially no capital outlay. Additionally, the system reduces the carbon foot print which has an environmental as well as a social impact.</p>
